form_opts(3)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual	     form_opts(3)

NAME
     form_opts - set and get form options

SYNOPSIS
     #include <form.h>
     int set_form_opts(FORM *form, OPTIONS opts);
     int form_opts_on(FORM *form, OPTIONS opts);
     int form_opts_off(FORM *form, OPTIONS opts);
     OPTIONS form_opts(const FORM *form);

DESCRIPTION
     The function set_form_opts sets all the given form's option
     bits (form option bits may be logically-OR'ed together).

     The function form_opts_on turns on the given option bits,
     and leaves others alone.

     The function form_opts_off turns off the given option bits,
     and leaves others alone.

     The function form_opts returns the form's current option
     bits.

     The following options are defined (all are on by default):

     O_NL_OVERLOAD
	  Overload the REQ_NEW_LINE forms driver request so that
	  calling it at the end of a field goes to the next
	  field.

     O_BS_OVERLOAD
	  Overload the REQ_DEL_PREV forms driver request so that
	  calling it at the beginning of a field goes to the pre-
	  vious field.

RETURN VALUE
     Except for form_opts, each routine returns one of the fol-
     lowing:

     E_OK The routine succeeded.

     E_SYSTEM_ERROR
	  System error occurred (see errno).

SEE ALSO
     curses(3), form(3).

NOTES
     The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header
     file <curses.h>.
